CHARTER SCHOOLS

With years of experience working with charter schools — from single-site schools to large charter management organizations (CMOs) — SchoolMint understands your environment. We’ll optimize your system for your requirements and your recruitment, application, lottery, and registration processes.

Smarter Applications and Lotteries

Administer your applications online and take the pain out of lotteries with an automated system that is fair and transparent. Save costs and save staff and families countless hours while providing 24/7 access to forms and data as well as the ability to check application and waitlist status in real time. Improve data accuracy and integrity with autocorrect and auto-populate, SIS integration, and audit logs. Parents submit their student’s information, upload required documents, and accept and decline offers, all from their own mobile devices. You can even process fee payments online.

Streamlined Registration and Re-Enrollment

After the lottery is completed and offers have been made and accepted, you can easily manage every part of registration and re-enrolling returning students through one secure online location. Submissions are simplified for families and administrators with custom registration packets and auto-populated re-enrollment forms — all online and paper free. Real-time tracking and analytics give administrators a high-level view of where students are in the registration process, and communication templates help centralize family communications.

Powerful Digital Forms and Documents

Go paperless all year and manage all of your forms and student documents — not just at enrollment time. With easy form-building tools and intuitive forms management, along with parents’ ability to upload documents like student health records and birth certificates, you’ll have an automated, more efficient way to gather and manage the information you need. Real-time synchronization across the SchoolMint system means you’ll have cleaner, more up-to-date, and more consistent information that you can access securely at any time.
